| Duration | 15s |
| Length | 10° |
| Remarks | After the initial Bright flash, I saw the fireball travel, leaving a glowing trail for a two or three seconds, losing intensity, until it disappeared. I thought it was over. A second or two later, A bright object moving on the same path appeared, dim at first, then got brighter, then dim and disappeared. It repeated this every few seconds, each time less intense, and more difficult to see. I saw the object a total of 5 times. The initial bright flash was white/yellow in color, the second time was still white, and intense, every time after that it was a dim red/brown color. |
| Terminal flash | |
|---|---|
| Observation | Yes |
| Remarks | I was walking up my drive way, and I happened to glance over my right shoulder. At which point the flash occurred, it was bright enough that My friend who was with me at the time, saw the flash. It looked almost as if it were a pale white/yellow in color. |
| Fragmentation | |
|---|---|
| Observation | Yes |
| Remarks | After the bright flash, I saw a few seconds, two at most, of it breaking up. Any fragments that came off were hardly noticeable, the fragments were either very small, or burned out quickly, is what I guess. |
